  • Did I say any of the things you listed were ok either? Its not "bottle rockets". Innocent people lost their lives.

    You're lucky you're priveleged enough to be able to maintain such a heartless worldview. I hope nothing so awful ever happens to you or those you love.

    And yes, I do know where Mecca is. Its in Saudi Arabia next to the Red Sea. If you want to fight strawmen, then turn off the computer and go outside.

  • Does that make it ok? Answer: no. It doesn't.

  • A good reminder to go back and edit all your comments to [removed] if you didn't do so when you first left.

  • Erdoğan happened.

  • They will pay him off and keep doing it.

  • I'd like to know which 12 users upvoted this so that I can block them all.

  • Learning about long term index fund investing in my early 20s.

  • Have you heard of banning the vapes but not the drug thats in them?

  • You know... under my clothes I'm naked right now!

  • zed pls.

  • "Burundi is the poorest country in the world by GDP per capita, and is one of the least developed countries, facing widespread poverty, corruption, instability, authoritarianism, and illiteracy."

    "The country's dominant party is the National COuncil for the Defense of Democracy, a former Hutu faction in the civil war. It has widely been accused of authoritarian governance and perpetuating the country's poor human right's record".

    The record is so bad it gets its own Wikipedia entry.

    This guy's a clown and a failure of a leader. His country is a mess and he can't run it properly. Maybe he should focus on his own failures before attributing failures to others.

  • My mom got me a nice crock for my sourdough starter, and my brother got me a sous vide!

    Very excited. Made some steak and foccacia tonight to celebrate.

  • Not just "all is right". They see this and think "this is what God wants."

  • "but hey" is a colloquial conjunction phrase in American English. It's usually used to indicate that the previous clause had a valid concern or made a good point, but the speaker is choosing to make light of it in order to disregard it despite knowing better, because they shortsightedly want the outcome described in the clause that follows.

    Another example: "My doctor told me to watch my weight, but hey, it's Christmas and those cookies look fantastic."

  • I'm from the PNW and I read this thinking "mmhmm yep I could see how that could happen."

  • I felt bad thinking the same thing but JESUS PEOPLE GET YOUR SHIT TOGETHER. There are other great low-budget Android phones out there. WHAT ARE YOU DOING buying a Huawei?

  • Nope it doesn't. They didn't rape the women at the music festival because of the Israeli bombs. They did it because they're monsters and they enjoyed it.

  • Correlation does not imply causation.

    • People who spend more time online will be exposed to more scams, and therefore are more likely to fall for one. If you don't see any scams because you don't know how to open "the internet", you won't see scams you can fall for.
    • Gen Z could just be more likely to self report. Self-reporting fault or failure is less socially acceptable among the culture of the boomer generation. Entirely possible Boomers are just lying or not self-reporting.

  • The story behind this is that Goodreads is actually owned by Amazon. They acquired it a long time ago hoping to use it as a way to drive book sales. The tl;dr is that it didn't work, Goodreads never made money, and over the past 2-3 years Amazon has slashed its budget.

    The site is now run by a skeleton crew that aren't enough people to even keep the basics running. Amazon is happy to watch it wither and die, its cheaper than shutting it down.
